A/N: Listen to the song at the side. It's called All About Us by He Is We ft. Owl City and it's a really, really emotional song. I've been addicted to it since I first heard it and I still am. Enjoy this chappie, my lovely cream puffs!!

"You got it.. almost there. There we go." Percy said gently. Annabeth stumbled into his arms, getting a soft chuckle from him. He loved doing this past time with her. Ice skating was one of the ways they would try out as a normal teenager, forgetting about the dangerous world they live in. Annabeth, unfortunately was terrible at ice skating whilst Percy was an expert. Here he was, teaching his beloved girlfriend how to skate.
He wrapped his arms around her waist, steadying her as she tilted to the right, nearly falling. She tried a few more times but they just resulted into her slipping and almost landing on her butt. Percy, knowing that Annabeth would never give up under any circumstances, continued to hold her until he thought she was ready. At one point, he suddenly let go and watched her skate for about 3 meters and catching her just as she was about to fall. He braced himself for the 'why-did-you-let-me-go-you-idiot' talk but saw her catching her breath and smiling instead.
"I did it." she gasped, squeezing Percy's arms. Gods, it hurt. "I did it!" she said louder, jumping up and down. She slipped at one point and Percy let her fall into his arms. "Better calm down, Wise Girl. Don't want you hurting yourself."
Just then the DJ made an announcement. "Attention! In 2 minutes the Lover's Skate will be coming up. Everybody find your pair now!" Percy nodded to Annabeth, and dragged her along the rink. "How exactly do you dance on a rink?" Annabeth asked. "You don't, Annabeth. You just pair up with your partner and skate slowly. Like this." He took both of Annabeth's hand and pulled her close to him. He turned from side to side slowly, bringing Annabeth with him. "It's tricky. I can't move slowly without falling." she said, frowning. Percy smiled. "It's okay. I'll teach you along the way. Come on."
"Alright now the Lover's Skate will commence." The lights in the rink dimmed and a disco ball was lowered down. A beautiful song came on and Percy knew it well. His mother used to play it all the time. Like before, he took Annabeth's hands and taught her what to do. "First, we hold each other's hands. Then, we skate along the rink. And that's basically it. I will catch you if you fall, don't worry." They let the song's lyrics drift around in their heads, feeling each word.
"Alright, we're gonna be randomly picking a couple to dance for us as the Skating King and Queen!" the DJ announced. All the couples stopped dancing and waited for the screen to display the lucky pair. And when it did, it showed a familiar long black hair and blonde curls. Annabeth gasped. "Percy, it's us." A spotlight fell on them and followed their every move.
"It sure is. Come on." The others made a circle in the middle, enough space for them to skate. Annabeth glanced around nervously. She didn't like to look like a fool, especially in front of strangers. Soft music started playing and Percy held her close. They swayed slowly and gracefully to the words. "It's okay if you don't know what to do. Everything will be fine. I'll be here if you fall." Percy said reassuringly. He copied everything the music said. Naturally.
Take my hand
I'll teach you to dance
I'll spin you around
Won't let you fall down
Would you let me lead
You can step on my feet
Give it a try
And you'll be alright
Annabeth did everything Percy told her. And she didn't slip up, not even once. When the song ended, the crowd gave a loud applause. "See Wise Girl? That wasn't so bad. They're cheering for us." Percy smiled. Annabeth kissed him. "They sure are, Seaweed Brain. They sure are. This was fun. I'm glad and thankful my very persuasive boyfriend brought me in the first place to have such a great experience." Percy grinned. "You made this my best day by being here, Annabeth. That was our song."

How do you like it? Sorry if any facts are wrong. I've never been to an ice rink before :D Let's see, this is a sweet one... with an emotional song.
The song's video is even more saddening. It's about a boy and a girl happily enjoying their life. Then the girl gets cancer and is afraid of losing her life and boyfriend. Despite that, the boy still loves her and proposes to her even when all her hair is gone and she feels overwhelmed and stuff.
Anyways, please tell me what you think of this chapter because I literally had no idea what I was writing. Feedback is very important to me, y'know? Peace to the out cream puffs!! ✌️✌️😃
